    It’s best to create a custom URL around your name. It makes your name easily searchable on Google

  4. Make wise connections
    Employers look to see who you associate yourself with so make sure you connect with people who reflect well on you.
  5. Ask for recommendations
    Recommendations can make or break a job application. Having your connections write a good recommendation letter for the public to read immediately increases your credibility and adds depth to your experiences.

After updating your profile using these tips, make sure to keep your profile up to date with new skills and experiences to further increase the chance of a future employer connecting with you.
